SW MI The swimming team this year was the first in the history of Chico State. All members, except for two, were freshmen. A strong team should represent the Wildcats in three years. The team was the surprise of the Par Western Conference meet at Davis, capturing a strong third place and kicking San Francisco State out of its chance for ICIISY place. Score: California Aggies 79, San Francisco State 502, Chico State 26M, Humboldt State 2. The Wildcats failed to win any individual championship, but the local mermen did win the applause of the spectators by their excellent and unexpected good showing. The closest race of the day was the 220 yard free style event. The Cats' Bob Daughtry battled the Aggies and Gators stroke for stroke. At the finish line there was a simultaneous slap of three hands, but a consultation by the judges gave the Aggie swimmer the race and Daughtry second. . Garth Dunning was a strong second in diving. In all, Chico received nine places in the me-et. Left: Daughtry, I-ledger and Petersen have a practice splash. Center: Don Steinwert doing the butterfly. Right: Galloway McKinley.
